Time to play with the July kit from the Flying Unicorns. This month the kit came with a 6x6 pad of Prima's Vintage Emporium paper for the smaller projects, and some vintage buttons and rustic flowers for embellishments.

I pulled out my JustRite dies to assist in my card making. The background was made using the following dies shown below:

Here is a close up of the lovely embellishments. I topped one of the 49th and Market flowers with the vintage button from the kit. I completed the card with raffia.

I have about 6 feet of raffia leftover from a 12 ounce packet I bought. haaaaaa - I thought it was about 12 ounces , then when it arrived it was a crazy giant package. I could make a nest for Miss Escape Kitty even, or a hula skirt, the possibilities are endless - though I'm trying to use it up one project and card at a time.

Thanks for stopping by. The Flying Unicorn kits move fast. If you missed the kit already, you may want to think about the pre-order option avail starting the 20th of each month. This provides you with a complete look at all the items and products contained in the kit. You have 48 hours to purchase. Now that's a great deal. All the details can be found right here.

My landscape was then created using a variety of Tim Holtz distress inks.

Why is this Multistep stamp so cool?

This is a multistep landscape stamp that helps you build your own design with trees, grass, rocks and everything you need for a peaceful landscape.

Why are these so cool? Picture this is your head.....You have an intricate tree stamp and you want the final stamped image to have some definition when stamped - maybe have some different colored leaves for example. In the past you'd have to get out your colored markers and color the actual stamp with different colors - the trunk needs brown, the leaves are different. Once you think you have your colors where they need to be, you stamp - while holding your breath for the results.

No more! The guesswork is gone. These let you decide how to color your image one stamp at a time. Go ahead and pull out the brown and stamp the tree trunk . Next grab your various green inks (or orange, yellow and brown for autumn) and stamp away with confidence. Stamped layers are really easy to manage.

LemonCraft EveryDay Spring CollectionI'm here today to share some projects for June using LemonCrafts's EveryDay Spring collection. This post was featured at Lemoncraft here.

The 'EveryDay Spring' collection is new and is a collection you must have. It is fun and bright and beautiful. I thought I would add my pretty niece to a layout using 'EveryDay Spring 06 sheet'.

This is the first layout using this gorgeous collection. LemonCraft also has beautiful chipboard to match the collection. You can see the chipboard flourish I added. I also used the fun buttons from the collection.

I added accents of watercolor to the page using the Prima Marketing Confections Tropicals watercolors.

The music paper in the background was added and glued to the page by painting a layer of clear matte gel medium onto the paper, then over the music paper to secure it in place and make sure it doesn't peel off.

This is available and I'll add YOUR photo.

Now for the cool part....this is in my ETSY shop and is available and ready to be customized with your photo. And even better....I'll add your quality photo if you send it to me. I'll make sure it's perfectly blended and looks great with the layout.
